I like the way this Chardonnay has evolved over a number of vintages. It used to be very acidic and citrus dominated. In recent vintages I get more orchard fruit and stone fruit, and a bit less acidity. Seems to be more in balance and inviting. A bit of sandalwood or balsa along with the fruit. Very enjoyable but QPR is not there compared to other reasonably priced offerings.

Drink now...or at least in the next 1 - 2 years in order for this wine to peak. Flavors and aromas are balanced along with the acidity and alcohol content.

I agree with everyone else....this is a nice sipping chard with flavors of honeydew melon and pears with a slight lemon. I believe this wine has more life...hold another 2 years.
